This lot contains a Sikes' Hydrometer. Typically dating to late 19th - early 20th century, the device was used for measuring the specific gravity of a liquid which, in turn, allowed a person to judge the alcoholic strength of the liquid.
The box appears to be mahogany and is velvet lined. The set is complete with hydrometer, set of weights and thermometer (see condition).
Please note the glass cylindrical stem of the thermometer is snapped in the middle and not in working order.
Some wear and ageing to the box and hydrometer.
